Eric Greitens to investigate the Williams' case canceled its meeting on Tuesday, June 5, 2018, citing confusion over whether it still has authority now that Greitens has resigned. Williams was hours away from execution in August when Greitens halted the procedure after new DNA evidence raised questions about whether Williams really killed Lisha Gayle in suburban St. Louis in 1998. Supporters of Williams planned a rally Tuesday in Jefferson City. (Missouri Department of Corrections via AP, File)
